<p>Not that one, but our two had a variety of Leapfrog products and without exception they were disappointing.

but for both indoor and outdoor use that's still silly fast fun and even competive if the bug bites (and it usually does) 1/8th scale li-po powered buggy. Just as long run times as nitro....... Only faster!<br />
All the big manufacturers sell pre built with radio gear installed at entry level prices.</p>
<p>Search HPI racing, team losi, team associated. Sorry cant do hyperlinks on this phone.

<p>Tamiya cars are great, get a kit one and you can build it together. </p>
<p>Disney princess costumes are usually popular with 4 year old girls, Lego Duplo, drawing stuff?

<p>You could get a Maisto crawler rc car? Perfect first rc car that will go over obstacles etc and not too fast to use indoors without worrying about breaking things. That's what our 4 year old is having, our 9 year old is having a proper rc car from modelsports uk, just have to pick one for him.</p>

<p>Ok, so the little boy inside of me is still upset that he never had a 'proper' RC car. So maybe, just maybe, I might do that thing and spoil the lad rotten just so I can "have a go"!</p>
<p>What about something like this from Tamiya...</p>
<p><img src="http://www.modelsport.co.uk/_images/products/standard/58416_b.jpg"></p>
<p>Anyone familiar with these? What sort of operational time do you get and is it a good idea to get spare batteries etc...
